Welcome to 16 Ruth Court, a 4 bedroom, 3 bath Lafayette hillside home that works beautifully as a single family home or mult-generational living. This home is a true entertainer's delight. The updated kitchen with shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, and a large center island with seating for four flows naturally into the dining room and right out onto the view deck for effortless al fresco dining. At sunrise, sunset, or anywhere in between, the hills stretching out before you will make in front of you, that deck becomes your favorite spot fast. The vaulted living room with warm wood beams, a dramatic skylight, and a floor to ceiling fireplace is the kind of space that stops people mid-tour. The primary en-suite is generous and bright with a window framing those same valley views from above. Step down to the backyard onto a level no-mow lawn framed by mature trees, an iron fence, and sweeping valley views that follow you everywhere on this property. The home divides naturally into a 3 bed, 2 bath 1,600 sq ft upper floor and an 820 sq ft 1 bed, 1 bath lower floor with its own kitchen, laundry, and private entrance. Set up the in-laws, kids returning home, or just live large. Tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac, minutes to downtown Lafayette, Walnut Creek, top rated schools, BART, and trails. One great view. Ideal location. A home with endless possibilities.
